With the object of giving some one of

start in life the GLOBE has determined
to originate and carry out plan which

or improbable in the assertion that the
lot will easily bring $4,000 before a
baby at the present time becomes of age.
1t is proposed to give this lot, free of any
incumbrance, to some baby who is for
tunate enough to hold the lucky num-
Der. The deed will be made to the pa
rents, who will be required to hold the
lot i'll trust for the child until it becomes
OF age. There is no charge for tickets.
They are FREE TO ALL-who have ba-
bies born between January l, 1887, and

Dissipated Owl.

A New York saloon-keeper not
long ago owned trained owl. All
day long the bird remained perched
upon the antlers of stag over the
bar, and many were the bets made
as to whether it was stuffed or alive.
When night came on it would fly
down and perch upon the shoulders
of the proprietor, eating small
pieces ofraw beef from his hand.
1t kept the place entirely free from
rats and mice, approaching them
noislessly from behind and killing
them with one of its powerful
claws. When whipped for misbe-
havior it would feign death, lying
upon the broad of it's back without
the slightest motion, with It's eyes
closed and claws set rigidly. 1t
would remain in this attitude until
the attention of the bystanders was
distracted, when it would stealtIlily
fly to it's perch above the bar. The
strangest characteristic of the crea-
ure was the love of drink. 1t
would wabble up to the pail which
contained the drippings from the
beer kegs, and sip and sip until
completely overcome by the liquor,
when it would stagger into "a corner

ADVICE to Young I.awrers.

IN an address before the senior
class in law in Boston University,
General Benjamin F. Butler said
some excellent things and some
queer things as well. For example,
he said of the relations of the law
yer to his client charged with crime:
s.You can defend him more easily
if you know he is guilty than you
can if he is innocent, for sentiment
comes in. There is nothing in the
context to show that General Butler
meant anything more or less than
his language, taken in its common
acceptation, would mean. General
Butler knows the value of words,
and he must be supposed to mean
what he says.
In this light it would seem to be
unfortunate for man to be inno-
cent of an .offense with which he is
charged, for he cannot be so well
defended as though he were guilty
and his guilt known to his counsel.
On this same line of moral move
ment it is the duty of the counsel
to his client to cheat Justice if he
can, and his duty is not discharged
if he contine his efforts to seeing
that his client has trial according
to law and does not suffer because
of his lack of knowledge of the law.
General Butler has been one of
the country's most successful Grim
inal lawyers, and must be given
credit for understanding his bust
some successful lawyers who mix
more morals and good citizenship
with their law practice.

Conse Drlnlslng and .l.e sIar-


People who buy coffee lave no
doubt been forcibIy reminded of
late that they have to pay a much
larger price than formerly. Some
grades of coffee are $50 per cent
higher than they were year ago.
This rise is attributed to three
reasons. One is that the number
of coffee drinkers is on the increase
faster than the coffee yield. The
growth ofthe consumption has been
something enormous In 1881 the
United States used not quite so, ,OOO,-
600 pounds of coffee, or at the rate
of 1.16 lbs. to each person. In SO we
used 552, ,O0O, ,090 lbs, which was 10
lbs. for each person. The European
consumption of coffee has also vastly
increased, and it is probable that
its production-has not nearly kept
pace with the demand for it. As
the demand for coffee has increased
that of ardent drinks has decreased.
The United States is already a ma
ton of coffee drinkers.
But a more direct cause of the
great rise in the price of the coffee
is the failure of the Brazilian crop
last year and the prospective fail
ure of the crop this year. This
failure has effected the market price
of not only Rio and Santos, but
Java and Mocha as well. The de-
mand already being greater than
the supply, it is easy to see the eff
feet ofthe failure of two crops. Even
the loss by shipwreck short time
ago of 1000 bags of coffee caused
a rise in the market. Coffee raising
seems to be about the only work
that is not over crowded.
Another great cause for the rise
in price is the manipulation of spec
ulators. As big stock as possible
has been gotten on hand and the
market bullcd. These spectators
have sold out at a profit of from so
to 100 per cent. and made hundreds
of thousands if not millions of dol
lars. The rise in price has been
a fine thing for every dealer that
happened to have good stock on
hand. Almost everybody has Jared
we'll except the coffee drinker, who
has had to reach down deeper in his
pocket to buy his favorite beverage.
An increase in price of ten cents
per pound means an extra tax of
s5O, ,OOO, 900 upon the American peo-

Every Man His Own Antf.Poy-
CRY Society.

A story is told of a New England
manufacturer who recently marked
500 which he paid out to his en-
ployes on Saturday. On the Mon
day following $500 of the marked
money was deposited in bunk by
the saloon keepers of the town.
The story may be true or false
and it may be said that when the
money had been earned it was the
right of those who earned it to spend
it as they pleased. 1t is true that
one dollar out of seven for drink is
much more than the average drink
ing man spends.
The fact remains that in any com
munity the money spent in exces-
sive Indulgence in drink, if placed
in a common fund and invested to
advantage, would in no great time
be sufficient to protect that com
munity from all the ills of the pow
erty that means misery.
The same end will be served ifthe
individual man will take care of his
dollars and provide for the enforced
idlencss when work is short or i'll
health comes. This is not more
than every provident man does, and
it should be pleasure rather than
a hardship. There is more in this
for the individual and for society
than in all the anti-poverty socie-
ties that theorists may devise.

Too AIncIl Profnnitx.

To speak plainly: the profanity
that is indullyed in BY the Ioafers on
the street is entirely too common,
and ought to bestopped The coarse
oath can be heard ringing in sonor
Gus tones almostany time during the
day. and in the evenings it isworsc.
The people whohave no more respect
for themselves than to indulge in
this most useless, and least benefitting
of all the evil habits, cannot be ex-
pected, of their own accord, to hush
their blasIlpheny in the presence of
ladies' But there is an ordinance
against such, and it should be better
enforced The strings ofoaths which
greet the ear of the passerby on
many corners is disgusting to the
hardened man Of the world, and to
the ladies who are out on business,
or pleasure is an insult that
should be promptly punished. There
is law for the punishment of such
offenders, and we hope this is the
last time that we shall be compelled
to call the attention ofthe authorities
to the matter. 1t is the birth-right
of every man to protect woman, and
surely there is no greaterinsultt than
the coarse oath that greets them as
they walkabroad in this city. Why
men will swear at all. is a puzzle to
themselves no doubt. Other evil
habits produce a momentary pleas
ure by their action on the nerve
centers, but profanity does not. But
if any man derives satisfaction from
swearing, let him either curse under
his breath, or go where there is no
one to hear him. He should not be
permitted to indulge his fancy atthe
cost of others. The man who will
swear in the presence of woman,
deserves the severest punishment,
for he breaks the laws of the land as
well as the laws of decency and
manhood. Let the street loater be
hushed as he insults the wives and
daughters of this city, or be punish
cd to the full extent of the law, ifhe
will not close his lips to this vulgar
habit of swearing.-ChdrleSton Star.

She was equal to the task and
gave the text: @Mary hath chosen

that justice was done to the oecas-
